FALL CLASSIC LEAGUE NEWS
| October 16th 2001 | League News This is a reminder that there is a game on Thursday this week. Except for those of us with Bills and Jags, the week will go on as normal. You can still pick up players up through Saturday night at 10:00 PM, except for any Bills or Jags, who won't be available after Wednesday evening. |
| October 16th 2001 | Week Five Story Guest Column: Week Five by Scott Pianowski, rotowire.com Coming into yesterday, I was feeling pretty good. The fourth NFL Sunday had been kind to me; ten wins in the RotoWire staff picks, 5-0 record on my premium selections, and a host of predictions in the Game Capsules that came true. I felt confident. I felt in control. Maybe even a little smug. Then came yesterday, Week 5, the Week from Oliver Stone's Imagination. A football prognosticator can go from "smug" to "slug" in just a few hours. Did Week 5 really happen? Did I dream all this stuff up? I know my paper must have a misprint in the Patriots-Chargers summary. Doug Flutie loses a game at Foxboro? Nah. Tom Brady throws for 356 yards? Terry Glenn (Terry Glenn?) and Jermaine Wiggins score touchdowns? No way. Someone made that up. Figment of someone's imagination. Some prankster must have made up the Tennessee-Tampa Bay summary, too. The Bucs defense allows 31 points? Don't believe it. Steve McNair throws for a touchdown, runs for a touchdown, and plays well? The same McNair who hasn’t run one in since, well, since Slick Willie was president? I'm not that gullible. Brad Johnson throws three touchdown passes? The same Johnson who had no TD passes the first three games? Sure, sure, whatever you say. And aren't Eddie George and Warrick Dunn hurt? What are they doing in the boxscore? Forget all that -- let's check out a real defense, the Ravens. How'd they do? Baltimore allows 31 points? Antonio Freeman burns them for nine catches, 138 yards, and a touchdown? The same Freeman who had just nine catches for 80 yards entering the game? Right, right. Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge. Tell me another one. Tell me the unstoppable Rams offense, say, scores just 15 points. Tell me Kurt Warner doesn’t throw a touchdown pass. Tell me Marshall Faulk fumbles twice (yeah, right) and doesn’t score a touchdown. I believe. I believe anything you say. Tell me the high-powered Broncos get blown out in Seattle. I’ll nod. Tell me Kordell Stewart throws a touchdown pass. I'll nod again. I continue to peruse the paper. This is all fiction. Ryan Leaf got signed by an NFL team? Hilarious. Ha ha ha. Charlie Batch throws for 345 yards and three touchdowns? Stop it, my stomach hurts. How naive do they think I am? Why would anyone really believe that Aaron Brooks would go 14-for-40 passing against the Panthers? Preposterous. How could anyone really fall for Cam Cleeland scoring two touchdowns? Doesn't he get hurt every week singing along to the "Star Spangled Banner?" The Browns didn't get a sack, but Michael Strahan got four. Randy Moss didn't score a touchdown, but Eddie Kennison did. John Kasay makes a field goal from 52 yards, and Neil Rackers misses from 22 yards. Yep. Sure. Whatever you say. They don't call this game fantasy for nothing. We’re not really going to count Week 5, are we? Does this go down on my record? If I didn’t see it, it didn’t happen. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. |
| October 16th 2001 | Week Five Rewind OK, so I get all my work here finished, and I then see that I missed a KC safety. That one play changed a whole buncha stuff. First-off, it meant Cannibis and Slam Boyz finished in a 39-39 tie, and went into overtime. It ended up being possibly the highest scoring overtime we've had since we've been doing the overtime thing. Slam Boyz bench beat Cannabis bench 26-15, so Shawn gets his first win! And for the 2nd time this year, we have a team not pick up a DT to cover a bye week. Each time that team ended up losing in overtime. In our other games, Sheep can't seem to point his QB's in the right direction, as he now has recieved negative points from his QB in 4 out of our five weeks. But he still got a win. Priest Holmes went off again getting Bottweiser a league high 4 game win streak. Nightmare looked like his old self again by putting up 41 points against T.T.P. (who now has had 40 or more points scored against him in all but one week). Micah's defense took a whopping 13 points away from j.alan's score, but Vince still pulled out a victory. And for the 2nd straight week, Orgasmos put up the 3rd highest score, and has two losses to show for it. Check out the Week Five Box Score to see how everyone did.
|
| October 9th 2001 | Week Four Rewind Yeah, ok, so we missed a week here. But you didn't miss much. I mean, any week that is bad enough that Orgasmos got a win, there couldn't be much else to write about. This week had some stories to write about. How about Sheep going into new territory and putting up a negative score. We haven't had a negative score for at least a year (I had to go make a special deely-bob so I could put Sheeps score as a negative on the box scores (which is what also caused the delay in getting the box scores up this week)). j.alan lost his first game, to a team that he was beating by 14 points on Monday and hadn't won a game yet. Cannabis tried talking some smak to the commish. Eh, sorry. My San Francisco Treat put up 36 and talked their own smak. Micah is continuing his impressive rookie season. The thing is he could be even more impressive if he would put the right running backs into his starting lineup (just how does one leave Mike Anderson and Rickey Williams on their bench and put Dayne in as their starting back?). Orgasmos also put together his second high scoring week in a row. Unfortunatly he was up against Scotties Hotties, whos only weakness right now is a dude named Randy. If the balls bounce the right way, I'm thinkin' Scottie has a team that can challenge Nightmares single season scoring mark. Oh, and about that picture. I thought it captured perfectly the bizzare happenings of this season so far. The Dallas Cowboys PK (Tim Seder) has as many touchdowns as Randy Moss. Check out the Week Four Box Score to see how everyone did.

| September 25th 2001 | Week Two Rewind Week #2 brought a few more twists and turns to our league. We had Peyton Manning miss our leagues QB scoring record by one point. But it didn't bring a victory for Slam Boyz as he was playing T.T.P., who was fortunate enough to have Marvin Harrison on his side of the field. T.T.P. was then able to watch Ryan Longwell finish off a come-from-behind victory with his 13-point Monday Night performance. In the final week of last years regular season, Sheep beat Scotties by one point in a 57-56 game. That victory gave Sheep a division title, and knocked Scotties out of the playoffs. In their first meeting since, they go to overtime with the score tied at 31. Sheep's bench had Olandis Gary and his TD, which got Sheep the Over-Time victory. Cannabis also had a come-from-behind victory with Mondays game. Nightmare went into the game with a 5 point lead, which soon disapeared as Favre went off, and Ahman Green ran his ass off, but only between the 20's. So Cannabis took a five point victory. Check out the Week Two Box Score to see how everyone did.
|
| September 18th 2001 | Starting Again The NFL has announced today that it will maintain it's 16-week schedule. What that means to us is we will play our same schedule, starting up with week #2 again for this weekend. |
| September 12th 2001 | Score Update The Dolphins defensive touchdown was missed when I was compiling the scores. Putting their score in means Bottweiser almost got a huge come from behind victory over Sheep. Their final score is now 34-33, with Sheep still winning. So we had two games finish with that same 34-33 score this week. Week One Box Scores |
| September 11th 2001 | No Waivers For the first time in my memory, no one was picked up on the first day of waivers after week one was completed. Free Agents pick-ups are now available on a first-come-first-served basis until the rosters freeze again at 10:00PM on Saturday. |
| September 11th 2001 | Week One Rewind The first week of the season has concluded, and it looks like some teams have to get back to the drawing board in a hurry. Our current Champ, TTP, put up a titanic three points. We also had Postal Police and Orgasmos put up a combined 23 points. But on the other end, j.alan and Nightmare put the smack down on the rest of us. Monday Nights action had a few good things going for it. Bottweiser actually made a decent comback attempt against Sheep. Being down by 34 points after Sundays action, Bottweiser put up 27 points on Monday, which was more than four of our teams did the entire weekend. And Scotties has finally been on the winning side of a Monday Night Comeback. If you don't remember, Scotties is the team that once had a 21 point lead after Sunday's action, and got to watch as his opponents kicker stick him with a 22 point night. Well, this week wasn't as big of a comeback for Scottie, but after trailing by 6, and also having his opponents DT to contend with, Scotties watched his kicker get that lucky 7th point, and the Giants DT got a big goose egg. Check out the Week One Box Score to see how everyone did.

| September 8th 2001 | Week One's lineups posted You can check out your opponents lineup, and the lineups of the rest of the games by checking out the Week One Box Score. |
| August 29th 2001 | Pre-Season Power Poll released. The Pre-Season Power Poll is now up and ready. Once again, we used the fantasy rankings from NFL.com to rank your "starters". If you get excited or dissapointed of where your team sits, take a chill pill. These mean about as much to our season as the WNBA means to good summer fun! |
| August 27th 2001 | A New Web site There have been some new additions to the web site. Lemme know if any of the suck enough to piss ya off. With the new 'News Ticker', you can click on each of the headlines and it will take you to that items page. |
| August 26th 2001 | The color black Sheep and Slam Boyz both have brand new logos! Following Hobies and Orgasmos, all four of the newest logos are dressed in black. |
| May 5th 2001 | A New Nightmare Hobies Nightmare now has a new logo! |
| February 13th 2001 | All-Time player stats! Who have been the best players in our league history? You can now find out. |
| February 6th 200 | Check out our past! Every year that we have records for is now posted on the web site. You can now go back and check out each season from 1992 to 2000 by checking out the archive page. |
| December 26th 2000 | A Champion is named! The Total Package has added his 2nd League Title after beating Cannibis in the 2000 Fantasy Bowl. Check out the Box Score to see how he did it. You can also check out the Season Review to see what words of wisdom the commish has to say about your season. |
| December 12th 2000 | Round One Round One is now complete in the 2000 FCFFL Playoffs. We have two teams getting their first ever playoff victories. One team getting it's first playoff loss, and another getting their first Loss ever in Round One. And for the first time since 1995, we have a Wensel Free Semi-Finals (I can hear Nightmare rejoicing now...). Now that the Semi-Finals week is here, we have a very lopsided bracket when it comes to play-off experience. Cannabis will be taking on j.alan's CHALLENGE in the top bracket. Both of them just got their first play-off victories ever. This is Cannabis' 6th season, and CHALLENGE is in his 8th season (and 3rd team name). After a combined 14 seasons, they have one playoff victory each. Then we move to the lower bracket. We have some history with these two. Sheep and The Total Package are both members of the original league and are both competing in their 14th season. These two are 1st and 2nd in all time FCFFL playoff victories and have combined for a total of 19 playoff wins (Sheep has 11, and Package has 8). They also have 3 FCFFL Championships between them. Sheep with 2, and Package has one. So which two will meet in the Fantasy Bowl? Who knows with the way things have been going. All we know is this: Vince is in a serious slump, finishing off the season with 3 straight losses, and he would have lost to all of the other 6 playoff teams this week, so he is still in that slump. Cannabis is about as un-predictable as you can get (he scored 15pts or less six times, and was team of the week 3 times). Sheep and T.T.P.? Both of them bring it damn near every week. |
| December 5th 2000 | New Stuff Now that the regular season has finished, it is time to unvail some new stuff. We now have 2 awards to recognize our players. The first is the MVP award. Or, as it should rightly be called "Player of the Year" (I couldn't get that many letters on the images I was using, so MVP worked really well). It will recognize not just the highest scoring player from each year, but will also look at how that player dominated their position for the season. The second award is the Rookie of the Year. There are also new ranking sheets. You can now check out the top scoring players of all time, the best single seasons of all time (by both individual player, and by FCFFL teams), and you can look at each seasons All-FCFFL 1st and 2nd teams. Right now, all of these stats are from 1997-2000. As I dig up the previous years info, I will add it to these rankings and awards. You can check these out by clicking on the links in the main menu on the left of the main screen. Or when I update them, they will be posted in the news section (like they are right now). I'll also put the links right here. M.V.P. R.O.Y. All Time Best |
| December 5th 2000 | Tie-Breakers So that everyone knows how the tie-breakers were finalized, here is what happened. j.alan's won the 1st seed outright. Sheep and Postal Police both won their division with 8-6 records. Sheep won the 2nd seed by beating Postal head-to-head during the season, giving Postal Police the 3rd seed. Bill Collectors and Cannabis both finished with 8-6 records. Bill won the 4th seed by beating Cannabis in their one meeting during the season. So Cannabis gets the 5th seed. T.T.P., Slam Boyz and Orgasmatrons all finished at 7-7, tied for the last three spots. With all three tied, head-to-head won't work, so they were ranked based on their Points Scored for the season. T.T.P. outscored Slam Boyz by three points, to get the 6th seed. And Slam Boyz outscored Orgasmatrons by 105 points, easily grabbing the 7th seed, leaving Matt with the 8th seed. Actually, Matt getting that 8th seed is not that bad of a thing. Matt has had Vince's number the past few years, and we've all seen how that #1 seed is a curse in this league. We'll have to see if Vince can change things around. |
| December 4th 2000 | 3 Years Past The archive page has been updated with the final sheets for each of the past three years (1997, 1998 and 1999). Go check them out when you get a chance. I have not been able to find the score sheets for last years playoffs, but I have the winners of each game, so they are posted. I will start adding the earlier years final pages as I get them done. |
| November 22nd 2000 | Leader Board Just so that you all know, when you go to the new leaderboard page, those buttons on the top of the screen are what will let you jump from the player page to the other pages. |
| November 22nd 2000 | Short Week With the short week, we all have to throw caution to the wind with our injured players and make sure to get your lineups in by 10pm on Wednesday. |
| November 22nd 2000 | Sweet Dreams So, it looks like I may have over-looked one team when I declared Hobies Nightmare eliminated from the playoffs. When I first looked at it last week, I had each of the teams that were 6-5 having already beat Nightmare. Meaning Hobie couldn't get in with a 6-8 record as he would lose the head-to-head tie-breaker with each of those teams. But there is one team that he did beat. Just one. And since that team has also made sure to lose this week, and with Nightmares record performance victory, there is still a chance he could get in. Who is this one team that Patrick can still knock out of the playoffs? None other than the team he has been competing with for the All-Time best league record: Sheep. Way back in week #1, Nightmare slapped Sheep around, and now that victory can come back to haunt Sheep. Hey Dean... Sweet Dreams. |
| November 15th 2000 | New Stuff! Orgasmatrons has got a new logo! So you will no longer have to wonder "what De Heck is that" when you see his logo. Now we just have to figure out which one is spelled correctly. His logo? Or his teams name. Just go check out the Owners page to check it out (or you can see it on the main page where all the logo's are). We also have a new Leaders Board for you to go check out. |
| November 8th 2000 | Week #10 finished Well, let me start off by giving this advice: Food Poisoning is NOT fun. Nothing like missing out on a good nights sleep to sit on or squat in front of (or sometimes both at the same time) your toilet. Now that I've got that outta the way, let's get on with what's happenin' here in the FCFFL... Vinny has clinched the first playoff spot. After not beating Matt in at least 3 tries, he released the hounds on him. Whoopin' his butt by 54 points. Ouch. To see where you stand in the playoff hunt, check out the Power Rankings page. The Playoff seeding is on the bottom of that page. |
| November 1st 2000 | Week #9 finished Finally finished with everything. Talk about a guy with bad luck with computers. I got home from work, and my disc I save all the FCFFL info on was fried. It wasn't even in the computer, and the computer was off while I was at work. But the disc still fried. It's a good thing I've been sending everything to Vinny. This is the last week to make trades. After week 10 is finished, no more trades are allowed. So if you're lookin to make a deal, you better get it done quick. And after this week, any players released from an FCFFL roster are done for the remainder of the season. No one can pick them back up. |
| October 31st 2000 | Not finished yet The front page is all that is finished at this point. Again, it's a weird week and I'm working on Tuesday. The main front page is all that is updated so far. I'll finish the rest late tonight. |
| October 25th 2000 | Week 8 Whatta week the NFL just had, eh? Ours wasn't so bad either. Two teams topped 60 points. Two teams left 23 point players on their bench. We also had a big Monday Night comeback with j.alan beating Postal by 3. Quarter Back decisions. The Good:Last week Vince decided to pick up Trent Green since he didn't need bye week coverage anymore, and he knew he wouldn't be able to get him if Warner went down. The Bad: Scotties benched Brad Johnson and his most productive game of the season in favor of Jake Plummer and his three picks. We just past week 8, so you can all add a 14th player to your rosters. And if you are thinking of making any trades, ya better get them going. After week ten, no more trades are allowed. |
| October 17th 2000 | j.alan's COLLECTORS? Once again, the weekly transaction period has begun, and once again, Vince has snatched up a former Collector (granted, there are quite a few of them). He now totes 3 former Collectors on his squad. Terrance Wilkens, Gary Anderson, and Chad Lewis have all gone under Bill's Stienbrenner sized axe, and are now riding on top of the league with the recently invincable CHALLENGE. |
| October 17th 2000 | Week Seven Week Seven is now complete and updated. And for at least the first time this season, each and every game was a blowout. The closest game was Nightmare and Scotties, and Nightmare doubled Scotties score. We also had victories by 40 and 44 points. All three division leaders lost this week, and all three 4th place teams won. This is a short week fellas. Make sure you check out the weekly schedule on the bottom of the main page so you know when things are happening this week. |
| October 10th 2000 | Week Six So I get up early on Tuesday to update the web site. Everythings goin fine, and then half way though finishing the box score page, the power went out. Nice. Couldn't do nuttin. So, I get to stay up late on Tuesday to finish. Anyways, everything is now updated. We had a whole buncha blowouts this week. Vince schredded my ass. Shawn scored 7 times the amount of points Matt did. And Ken slapped Patrick silly. Scott got to watch Tim Brown score his game winning overtime TD, and later realized that that TD is what gave Dean the win. |
| October 3rd 2000 | Week Five For the 2nd week in a row, we had one of our games come down to the last minute of the Monday Night game. Kansas City's interception at the end of the game last night gave Jeff a 43-42 victory over Shawn in the Rookie Bowl. Jeff came back from a 7 point deficit and avoided having a tie game for the 2nd straight week with that final play. In Matt's and Patricks game, not only did Hobie leave Eddie George on the bench, but on one fatefull Chicago Bears drive, James Allen (the RB starting instead of Eddie) was stopped three times from the 1 yard line. In came Chicago's kicker (who just happens to be Matt's kicker) to boot the field goal. That 8 point swing burried Nightmare. And finally, the Police and Cannabis faced off in our own little version of the drug war, and this time the law actually won. Remember to get your waiver picks in by 9pm tonight (Tuesday). There's a few of you needing some Bye Week coverage this week. |
| September 28 2000 | Week Four We're almost finally set here again. Whatta week we just had, eh? Matt beats Vince on Jimmy Smith's last catch late Monday Night. Scotties gets to kiss the guy he brings into the league. Cannabis has three recievers, two of them were on bye, and the other is out for the year. And he still slapped Sheep around. Nightmare felt that Wensel curse and for threw T. Couch into his starting line-up, and then lost by two points. And we have learned that 38 points is not something to aim for. Both Vince and Shawn scored 38 points this week and lost. And last week Jeff scored 38 and he also lost. I still have to get my Microsoft Office back on my computer. So I don't have the Leader Board or the Roster page updated yet. That will happen tonight when I gets home from work. And I'll also get the transactions updated for the week as well tonight. |
| September 19 2000 | Week Three Remember when our league used to be pretty much predictable? Sure, there was the occasional weird happenings, but usually the team that was supposed to win, won. Now we have teams dominating in the Total Team Points and posting losing records. Ken is producing 5 points a game more then the 2nd best team in the league, and he's sittin with a 1-2 record. Remember to get your pick ups in by 10pm tonight if you want to add players to your team. |
| September 14 2000 | New Girlies Vince has added a new cheerleader to his team. And Nightmare has a familiar face added to his cheerleader team. If you have a babe you'd like to be your cheerleader, send me the picture and I'll get it on there. Please keep in mind this is a free site and tripod doesn't allow nudity, although I am surprised they haven't kracked on me yet for Nightmares logo. |
| September 13 2000 | Transactions Update The transactions for the week are posted. You can still pick up players until noon on Saturday this week, and you can use those players in this weekends games. All of the players cut this week will be available for pickup in this upcomming Tuesday Waiver Draft. Click Here to see all of the current transactions. |
| September 13 2000 | New Logo for Canabis Canabis has adorned a new logo for his team. Since he's the Team of the Week this week, you can easily check out his logo on the main page. |
| September 5 2000 | Week One Complete! Week One's numbers are all entered and you can check them all out! Make sure you check the transactions page to see where you stand for tonights waiver wire. And I have also added a Rotesserie Rankings on the Power Rankings page. Have fun, get me your pick ups by 9pm if you looking to add anybody. |
| September 1 2000 | New Position I have appointed Vince to be the Leagues Treasurer. He will be the one keeping track of who owes what, and where we stand with the leagues money. Of course, if you want, and 8-4 vote can take that title away from him. He will also be giving me a hand by maintaining the individual team pages and the transaction page. |
| September 1 2000 | Transactions The Rosters Page has been updated. There has been one transaction already this week. |
| August 29 2000 | Message Board Go use it!!!!! Talk some smack. Or even give some praise to someone who deserves it. Just use the link in the menu on the left side of the main page. |
| August 27 2000 | Draft Coverage The 2000 Fall Classic Annual Draft is complete. While it may appear that most of us again drafted very competitive teams, NFL.com has something to say about that as their Fantasy Rankings rated each of our starting lineups. Check out those results in the Pre-Season Power Ratings. Everyone's roster is set up on one easy page to check out. And once you do that, vote for who you think had the best draft on this weeks poll. The season schedule is posted, click the 'Schedule' bar on the menu list to see it. The individual team pages will be updated soon. In the mean time, make sure you check out the Message Board (you will have to get a log on name and password) and brag about your team. |
| August 22 2000 | New News Layout! As you can see, the FCFFL News page has gone over a makeover. Comming soon, the cheerleader page! |
| Sunday, August 20, 2000 | New Toys! I have just re-added a couple of tools for us to use online. The Message Board is back. And I have added a Chat Room. For both of these tools, you will have to set up a log on name and a password. Use the message board to taunt the rest of the league, let other owners know about players you have on the trading block, or to just post something stoopid like "MY TEAM RULES! YOU GUYS ALL SUCK!" Ok, whatever. The chat room might be used for the draft if someone can't make it. And we could also set a time each week where we could all show up. So go check out the new tools, and get yourself signed up so you can used them. |
| August 15 2000 | Draft Location Set The draft will be held at my house. Again, the draft is on Sunday, August 27th at 4:30pm. Ken will go on the clock at 5:00pm with the first pick. |
| August 14 2000 | Rookie Teams Pick Names Shawn and Jeff have selected their team names! Shawn's team will be know as the Slam Boyz. And Jeff's team will be called Jeff's Juggernaut. Both owners are in the process of picking their team colors and finalizing their logo's. |
| July 21 2000 | Rules meeting notes The Rules meeting was held last night. And for the first time in league history, we don't have any new rules to learn! The draft order was set, and the division lineups were put in place. Go to the Draft Central page to check out all the draft information! |

| July 5 2000 | Rules Meeting Set The date for the Rules Meeting has been set. We will be conducting it on Monday, July 17th at 7:30pm at my house. If anyone has any rules changes or additions in mind and can't make the meeting, please let me know before hand and I'll bring them up at the meeting. |
| June 9 2000 | New Owners! For the first time in four years, we will have some new competition this year. We would like to announce that Shawn Harmon and Jeff Neunsinger have joined the league for our 2000 season. They will be replacing John and Wookie. John has decided to take a year off from all of his Fantasy Football activities. And Wookie has simply worn out his welcome. |
| June 3 2000 | Draft Date Set The date for the 2000 Fall Classic draft has been set. Mark your calendars for Sunday, August 27th. Time and place wil be announced soon! |
News from our 1999 Season
12/7/99
Man, this gets tighter and tighter every year. We could actually finish with
only one team above .500 this year. There will be between 4-6 teams with 8
losses. To determine which of those teams make the playoffs, I can't use head-
to-head and have to go to points scored.
Vince made the coaching decision of the season. He benched his normal starters
Bledsoe and Glenn, and replaced them with Chandler and Enis. He got a 21 point
difference because of that, and he won his game because of it too.
Bott is the king of the waiver wire this year. His pickups of Warner and the
Lions 'D' have put him on the 'Don't Wanna Play Him in the Playoffs' list.
Last week, Scotties and TTP played in a matchup of the two worst records and
put up the highest scoring game. This week, Matt and Wook played in a battle
of the two losest scoring teams, and they put up the highest scoring game.
Bottweiser is the only team since week 3 to score above 20 points every week.
That is an increadible stat considering how Mike started this year.
12/1/99
Vince has already won $60, and he has pulled away in the $30 most points race.
He was won a grand total of $0 prior to this year.
Scotties has been ranked 12th all season. If he beats Cannabis this week,
he then plays Bill for a chance at the division title.
The two teams with the worst record last week, (Scotties and TTP) put up the
highest scoring game this weekend.
Stogies is 5-2 outside of his division.
11/23/99
Dean has had a spectacular run the last 5 weeks. He has scored more points
in these last 5 weeks than Scott has scored the entire season.
Vince has clinched the first playoff spot for the season. For his next 3
games, he plays Sheep (who is challenging him in the race for the Total
Team Points prize), and both Bill and Matt, who are the only two teams left
that can unseat him from the best record prize.
Think you can count Scotties out? Favre and Elam are starting to play like
everyone expected when the season started.

Belch Power! The entier divison won this week.
Holy Monday Night! Kitna scores 8 to get Sheep an over time win! And the
Seahawks 'D' went nuts as Bill get stuffed on Monday again as John made a
17 point Monday Night Comeback.
Sheep and Cannabis had an overtime game. Sheeps bench scored zero points,
but Dean still got the win ash Cannabis' bench all scored zero as well,
except for Gannon, who went -1. Ouch.
In Bill's one point loss, he left 33 points on his bench.
Believe it or not, Bottweiser is the best team the last 3 weeks.
Vince's remaining schedule has the top 4 scoring teams, the hottest team,
and the team with the 2nd best record.
10/12/99
For the first time in memory, not a single transaction was made on Tuesday
Dean has outscored Matt by 50 points. Matt has a winning record, Dean is
suckin' wind in the win column. How da heck is that happening?
John has scored the 3rd most points, has played the 4th easiest schedule,
and he has a losing record.
League Firsts: Vince being 5-0, and both Sheep and Nightmare being below
.500 at the same time, and Wookie not taunting the league for three weeks
in a row.
10/5/99
If j.alan only goes 5-5 the rest of the way, Sheep has to go 9-1 to defend
his division title.
Similar to the NFL, our final four from last year are a combined 5-11
Matt is 2-2 despite being outscored by 42 points, while Dean and John are 1-3
while they have outscored their opponents.
We will be meeting at Chammps in Minnetonka this Monday.
In Sheeps last two games, his defense has scored just 0 and 3 points respectivley.
Both games were lost by one point.
O. Mare, C. Warner, T. Biakabatuka, J. Garcia and A. Connell, all picked up
last week, combined to score 83 points this week.
9/29/99
A couple of quarter back trades were pulled off over the weekend, go check
out the transactions page for all the details.
The top seven running backs selected this year were all shut out this week.
Kinda similar to the NFL, the four teams that made it to our Final Four last
season have a combined losing record. And 3 of the top 4 teams this season
failed to make the playoffs last year.
9/22/99
Vince's bench is still outscoring his starters for the season.
Bott has set a record with 2 games with a negative score in a season.
Think Bott's as low as he can go? Jamal might be out, Ricky is on bye
this week and can't seem to stay healthy, Barry still hasn't strapped
on the shoulder pads yet (well, atleast not in public), and Joey hasn't
signed yet.
When looking over Cranium's team after the draft, how many of you thought
that Wesley Walls would have as many points as Steve Young, Gary Anderson
and the Broncos 'D' combined?
9/14/99
Whatta weird week. The first 6 Running backs drafted combined for ZERO points. Two different teams got the big goose egg from their defensive teams. Elam and the Anderson kickers combined to miss 6 field goals. And is it just me, or does the Belch division seem to be upside down right now?
Dean had so much fun losing James Stewart last year in week one, he decided to try it again, and Vinnie T. pulled through for him. Unless a change is made, we will meet at Park Tavern again this Monday.
8/29/99
The 1999 League Draft is now complete. There are also a couple of new fixtures to this here web sight. Go check out the Message Board, or go check out your teams info page to see how your team is sitting. If you come across a dead link, please let me know so I can fix it.
8/23/99
Vince has re-christianed his team. He has now put the 'inVINCEables' in the same circular file as 'Vinnies Skinnies'. The new name for his team is
'j.alan's CHALLENGE'.
8/18/99
Something to consider this year for the draft: Since I didn't want to hold the draft over Labor Day weekend, this will be the first time in our leagues history that we are not drafting the weekend right before the season starts. Think of what can happen in that one week, the final week of pre-season.
7/28/99
John is moving his team from South Park! John's new team name will be Justice. And seeing how John's now a full fledged lawyer, he's gonna do everything in his power to make sure Justice Will Prevail!
Inspired by his new tatoo, Mike is also changing his teams name. In a matter of seconds, his name went from 'Sharkeys' to 'Beerman' and finally settled on 'Bottweiser'
7/18/99
Tell me what you think of the changes I've made to the sight. Is there anything I should add? Get rid of? Any feedback would be cool!
Some of you just have generic team logos. Some of you have logo's I just made up for you. If you don't like what is being used, or you have something you want me to use, get it to me and I'll put that in for your logo instead.
7/14/99
